Beyonce x Nicki Minaj

The world stopped – then carried on, of course – when Beyoncé and Nicki Minaj teamed up to release the surprise music video to their collab “Feeling Myself” last week.

Aside from the fact that it was two of the biggest superstars on the planet coming together, the video was dope because it showed a different side of the girls – a more playful, down-to-earth side, and the fashion was EVERYTHING. Furs in the pool? Jerseys as bathing suits? Bey wearing an ODB shirt? So. Much. Yes!

To give the BeyHive and the Barbz some insight as to how this all came together, Marie Claire spoke with Beyoncé’s stylist Marni Senofonte, and she revealed some interesting behind-the-scenes details.

On the vibe between the two:

“It was a total girlfriend vibe. Totally, like ‘you wear this, no you should wear this. Oh no, you look better in that.’ It was really amazing to see two of the biggest female stars in the world acting in that way. So supportive. You know, Beyoncé is known for being a girl who sings and talks about supporting and it was really a true testament to that. It was honestly just the most fun shoot, it was like a documentary. It really was just them, hanging out. Doing what they would do. Even the burger eating! We were actually still setting up at one point and they just start throwing fries at each other. Loved it. Thankfully, we got it on film.”

On how it came together:

“The truth of the matter is, it was really last minute. And it was Beyoncé’s idea to go to Coachella and to shoot at Coachella. It was so spur of the moment! But that’s B, that’s her. She’s so spontaneous and it’s just part of her craft—if she likes it or she wants it she goes for it. Honestly, there was no real ‘treatment’ that usually happens. The idea was, you know, ‘let’s go to Coachella.’ It was supposed to feel the way that I hope it does—really good friends, just going and having a good time, and making fun memories. And I scrambled together in two days what we would need and we went over everything, but it was really this idea of, you know, everyone at Coachella looks like a hippie, but I was like, what if the other kind of kids to go Coachella? This is all the clothes that we were wearing. It’s pretty much the urban version of Coachella.”
